About Me

S.Korean having lived in the U K more than 6 years and time to leave London soon.
Outgoing, pretty much positive and energetic, sometimes am told hilarious or ridiculous but well-mannered(I hope). Love back packing and meeting new people with warm-heart.

Used to own a small shopping mall business btw in 2005 and in 2009 while I was studying computer engineering in Seoul, Korea. Having become an independent forex trader since in 2009. Also got to U.K in 2009 and got addtional degree and master both in London.

Now just about to travel around some part of Europe for coming a few month at the gate of drawing a new life story again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Recently I got recommended of this website by my friends and heard about fabulous stories about their time with their hosts, providing a space for travellers but still sharing stories of themsevels and food and so on. More importantly, so much helpful to look through the city inside.

I am very much looking forward to seeing you guys, I think I am not a bad cooker, hope i can have some chances to introduce some Korean dishes and above all, myself =)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'd say 4 months backpacking in India was incredibly amazing, also joining Dalai Lama teaching for a week by accident(?) was quite inspiring to let me join Korean Monk School for a bit(?)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am interested in learning Salsa dance, Chinese atm.

I can teach you how to cook Korean food or the language and so on, but no guarentee you will have good one in the end through me ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think I am good at making ppl feel comfortable and them laugh.
I can share my stories which I think that is a bit unusal and somehow unique experiences.

Maybe, willing to cook some korean BBQ or some spicy dishes? ;)
